Sometimes people feel lonely and sad,
When they look back on the life they've had.
You know when all is said and done,
no ones laughing no one won.
Battle lines were bound to be drawn,
What once was love has turned to scorn.
You blame yourself l expect,
Cos they were here one day and gone the next.
Don't you see no ones to blame,
Its all part of lifes rich game.
Its left you feeling like your bereft,
In your head theres nothing left.
Remember when you were YOU,
World at your feet so much to do.
Somewhere along the way you got lost,
Sacrificing yourself was the ultimate cost.
Right now you're lonely and miserable,
I can see your pain its almost physical.
But l think you know deep down inside,
The day will come to leave the past behind.

I sat in the park with the razor blade,
Thinking about the mistakes l had made.
Was l serious? at the time,
I wanted to escape this life of mine.
A policeman said he could have me sectioned,
He said you've got more sense l reckon.
He said you're a bright intelligent girl,
Don't let that druggie put you in a whirl.
I knew in my head that he was right,
I was in a mess he could see my plight.
My head and heart were in a bad mess,
I couldn't see an end to this distress.
He did his talking with his fists,
And that is why l tried to slash my wrists.
I wanted an end to all this pain,
I never wanted to feel again.
I was being so very stupid,
I should have been glad to get rid.
He messed with my mind and my soul,
To destroy my life was his goal.
It didn't work l got out,
Found a life to feel good about.
Of course there were more bad times to come,
Mistakes made cos l was young,
15 years with a waste of space,
I shouldn't have jumped in in haste.
But l found courage did it again for me,
And now l am truly happy.

I turned 37 this week,
And things have started to look bleak.
I have the wrinkles and the middle age spread,
and plenty of grey hair on my head!.
The roadwork's on my estate have got on my nerves,
A car nearly hit us and had to swerve.
It was doing seventy in a thirty zone,
Nobody listens when l start to moan.
I was fuming and very cross,
So l wrote a letter to the boss.
My disgust at the antics l couldn't disguise,
So they sent a man to apologise.
My sponsored slim is going well,
My behind is not looking quite so swell!.
Everyone keeps telling me l look great,
Does that mean l used to look a state!.
In eight weeks l have lost two stone,
Not that bad for going it alone!.
Us shop staff are getting a raw deal,
Because our government can't get real.
The reason that things are in a state,
Is the over eighteens buying for their "mates".
Raise the age to twenty one?,
Well that would certainly stop their fun.
Twenty four hour boozing was a big mistake,
That only a labour government could make.
Us parents have lost our role,
And underage drinking is out of control.
They have the cheek to blame shop staff,
For gods sake Brown you don't know the half!.
Come Mr Brown to our front line,
And you will see things are far from fine.
I think l give my kids fair rules,
But they tell me l am being cruel.
It ain't easy being parents you know,
Doing our best while you grow.
You're twelve and want to come in late,
You'll grow up to soon at that rate.
We've read the book and bought the t-shirts,
Trust me, mess up it really hurts.
You will soon see that life is tough,
You'll be an adult soon enough.
There ain't nothing you can say think or do,
That we weren't doing years before you!.
